Re: RE: Running out of options for hypoglycemia

"Low body temperature indicates hypothyroidism, and hypothyroidism also leads to a slower pulse rate.  Tachycardia is a symptom of hyperthyroidism, but you would also have other symptoms such diarrhea and severe weight loss.

It is hard to say what is likely causing the tachycardia without having more information such as blood pressure when this happens and if the pulse is regular or irregular."

It's interesting that you mentioned that. When I was first getting really ill a few years ago, I thought I had hypothyroidism because I had dry skin on my arms, fatigue, and some other issues I don't instantly recall. I got the thyroid blood tests, and they came back normal.

I also started getting a lot of weight loss, but I attributed that to something else I'm dealing with (I suspect I may have cancer in my system or something because my body has been eating itself up, bones thinned, etc. I have this weird thing on my left thigh that ate up all the fat and stiffened the muscle. It's reddish like blood underneath, it used to be kinda purplish. It hurts sometimes, and all the hair fell out. It mildly spreads up my left side, all the way to my skull. On the part where it's on my skull, the bone gets painful and inflammed at times. The hair is thinner there. It used to be bald and severely painful 24/7, but herbs and eating raw greatly reduced the severity. My hair even grew back a little).

I'm 5'9" and 133 lbs. My weight gain has plateued at that and it is hard to gain further. I was losing weight even though I was eating when this first started, and I got all the way down to 109 lbs., perhaps lower, but 109 is the lowest I saw when I had access to a scale. Humaworm and eating raw meat helped me get to the weight I'm at now. Can't do humaworm right now because of hypoglycemia though. Before the weight loss, my weight floated around 150-160 and I was in pretty good shape.

Maybe the thyroid had something to do with the weight loss, but one thing I really suspected was related was my eye problems. When I was sicker, my eyes would become stiff and painful, especially my left eye. It felt like glaucoma attacks or something, but then they would also bulge. Seemed like proptosis to me. What really made me think "thyroid" was because I have a partially broken thyroid cartilage. I was choked when I was younger, and that is how it became damaged. The left side of the thyroid cartilage is the side that is really messed up. I can snap it back and forth, and move it around. I've tried before to see if it has just been out of place all these years (I am 25, I remember my throat being like that since Jr.High, probably earlier) and seeing if it can just pop back in place, but it won't. It seems structurally damaged and improperly healed perhaps; it affects my speaking/singing voice. Anyways, I noticed last year that I can trigger the bulging eyes or make it worse if it is already bulging by messing with the messed up left side of the thyroid cartilage. It would happen almost immediately, especially affecting the left eye.

I imagined that moving the cartilage around probably aggravated the thyroid and caused it to malfunction or release to much thyroid hormone, which messed with my eyes. Is that a possibility?

I have noticed that the eye problems are much less severe as well since eating raw meat and no grain.

What are your thoughts?
